Chelsea appear to have finally made a breakthrough in their pursuit of Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud.
It was reported initially that the clubs had reached an agreement over a deal worth in the region of £15m. However, these claims were refuted as Arsenal stalled negotiations with their London rivals.
The Gunners are now closing in on a deal for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, though, and the striker is apparently close to officially completing his move to the Emirates.
This means that Giroud is likely to be made available for a move away and Chelsea have pounced at the chance to recruit the Frenchman, with L’Equipe (via GFFN) stating that an agreement worth €20m including bonuses is set to be agreed.

Chelsea have been in the market for a physically imposing striker throughout the transfer window and it seems they will secure Giroud.
Michy Batshuayi may now leave Chelsea, with Borussia Dortmund keen.
